An original arduino Laser Dymo Clock


h’s Laser Dymo Clock


Original clock this!!

Using a UV laser, two stepper motors, two ULN2803 drivers for the motors, an Arduino,a "daisy wheel" print on transparent film, and some luminous paper, this project has achieved a very original clock.

This system opens up new paths to other projects: Perhaps a reader of tweets?

Arduino Pong Clock

Arduino Pong Clock



An interesting project with Arduino. A clock imitating the classic game of Pong.
The 2 players automatically win and lose so their scores show the hours and minutes.
 It can also show the time in other formats. The circuit uses a DS1307 as real time clock, and
2 bright LED matrix panels from Sure Electronics.
